undo or be undone after winding or being wound:

Listen to poem:
"Tell me and I forget. 
        Teach me and I remember. 
                   Involve me and I learn." Quote By: Benjamin Franklin

My love, touch me, hold me, kiss me.
Words come easy, action I see.
Tell me, I'll forget, won't return.
Teach me, involve me, and I'll learn.

Your words melodize warms my heart,
Show me and it won't fall apart,
But absorb and warmly return.
Teach me, involve me, and I'll learn.

As we lay and  wound in the dark
Light enough kiss to start a spark,
Your gentle touch I love and yearn.
Teach me, involve me, and I'll learn.

My love, touch me, hold me, kiss me.
Years later we'll cherish you'll see
A note in my mind burns unworn.
Teach me, involve me, and I'll learn.

Colossal poem and great in its originality. Bordering on romantic aspects, dear Eve, I found this poem to be very appealing and marvellous. Hugs, my dear friend. We swim in the same ocean.

Thank you so much, Victor. I really wasn't to sure what to write, but the quote hit home. I am a visual person and its probably because I am hyper. Blessing and many hugs
